This DEFA14A serves as definitive additional proxy material for Ocugen's upcoming Annual Meeting. While it outlines routine proposals such as director elections, auditor ratification, and executive compensation votes, it conspicuously omits the reverse stock split proposal that was the subject of prior preliminary proxy filings (PRE 14A on 2026-04-17 and PRER14A on 2026-04-20). Given Ocugen's 'going concern' warning and low stock price, the status of the reverse stock split is critical for addressing potential delisting and facilitating future capital raises. Its absence from the listed voting items in this definitive material suggests the proposal may have been withdrawn or deferred, which could be a negative signal for the company's ability to address its financial and compliance challenges.
